Made Possible By Hosts


Made Possible by Hosts campaign to educate people on the magical experiences that Hosts make possible for our guests. To do this, we created a series of films using real photographs shot by photographers on real trips staying in the homes of Airbnb Hosts around the world. These films connect with the sense of nostalgia we all feel about trips we took with people we care about, and the prospect of taking those trips again.

Airbnb’s redesigned app and website with 55 categories of unique homes, the innovative Split Stays feature, and AirCover for guests will be available worldwide this week, with rollout starting in the US today.










AirCover


Product Launch - AirCover, the most comprehensive protection in travel. AirCover is always included and always free, and it represents the biggest upgrade to Airbnb customer service in a decade.

With AirCover, you’re covered by four protections every time you stay on Airbnb:

  • Booking Protection Guarantee – In the unlikely event a Host needs to cancel your booking within 30 days of check-in, we’ll find you a similar or better home, or we’ll refund you.
  • Check-In Guarantee – If you can’t check into your home and the Host cannot resolve the issue, we’ll find you a similar or better home for the length of your original stay, or we’ll refund you.
  • Get-What-You-Booked Guarantee – If at any time during your stay you find your listing isn’t as advertised — for example, the refrigerator stops working and your Host can’t easily fix it, or there are fewer bedrooms than listed — you’ll have three days to report it and we’ll find you a similar or better home, or we’ll refund you.
  • 24-hour Safety Line – If you ever feel unsafe, you’ll get priority access to specially-trained safety agents, day or night.




Airbnb Friendly Apartments (aka Metropolis)


Capture photography for product launch, used in press, comms, marketing to communicate messaging below:

  • New program helps people to find apartments where they can host on Airbnb part time.
  • Airbnb-friendly apartments unlock the economic benefits of hosting to help renters cover the rising cost of living.
  • We believe cities can help renters better afford where they live by supporting Airbnb-friendly apartments and embracing policies that allow renters to share their space.




Airbnb Setup (aka Superhost Setup)


Over the past year, more than 30 million people have visited Airbnb to learn about hosting. Today, we’re making it easier for millions of people to get started. Introducing Airbnb Setup, the all-new, super easy way to Airbnb your home. Airbnb Setup includes:

  • One-to-one guidance from a Superhost – When you begin Airbnb Setup, we’ll match you with a Superhost for free one-to-one guidance from your first question through your first guest. You can chat with your Superhost over audio, video, or messaging. We’re launching with 1,500 Superhosts in over 80 countries who are dedicated to helping new Hosts get started.
  • An experienced guest for your first booking – For your first booking, you can choose to welcome an experienced guest who has at least three stays and a good track record on Airbnb.
  • Specialized support from Airbnb – As a new Host, you get one-tap access to a specially-trained team of Community Support agents. They can help with everything from account issues to getting paid and are available via phone, messaging, or email in over 42 languages.

Airbnb Host Stories


In 2019 we are searched for the most extraordinary hosts on Airbnb. These are inspiring individuals with incredible stories. Their homes are a manifestation of their minds; a product of their hopes, dreams, learnings, values -- a life well lived.  We are seeking stories of transformation, entrepreneurship, and belonging; a hero’s journey undergone due to Airbnb.

These stories will be featured in a content series called HOST. This series is meant to make hosting a thing, and bring the word “host” into the lexicon. Our hosts define hosting every day, fostering belonging through their hospitality. All together these beautiful profiles will tell a story of humanity.
